A young West Point grad was talking with some other NATO personnel one day and the color of the uniform was brought up. the English grad mentioned that the reason the Brits wear a red uniform was that if the officers got shot, the color of the uniform was red to match the color of blood. The troops wouldn't know their leader was wounded and that it didn't demoralize the fighting men and they could and would keep fighting. And to this day, that is the reason the French uniforms are brown!
